It has been a long week for us. Both Papa and Chloe has been sick. Papa has the flu and Chloe, high fever that has become Roseola or Fake Measles.
From Monday to Wednesday, Chloe was running a fever. It was on and off but during the night it spiked as high as 40.4 degrees! Out came the ice-packs and Voren (the suppository medication) to bring the fever down.
On Wednesday, Chloe had a few little red dots that looked like rash on her cheeks. Ah-ma suspected that our little darling had measles or chicken pox. Personally, I didn't think it was and applied candula cream religiously on the spots.
On Thursday, more little red spots appeared on Chloe's face and the fever has been settled.
Today, Friday, Chloe's whole body, back and face is covered with many little red rash like spots.
Confirmed, she has Roseola. Thankfully, she is still in good spirits but still not much of an appetite. Hope the spots will fade and that she will get better soon.
As for Papa, he has quarantined himself in the study room. He sleeps and eats in the tiny odd shaped room. The only time he comes out is to use the toilet. For those who are concerned, the answer is NO, he does not have H1N1.

Roseola is very common. It brings about very high fever but will go away very soon. Get well soon Chloe!
